What This Repo Provides

  • A shared runtime core in matanyone2/demo_core.py used by both the CLI and the Gradio app
  • A package entrypoint, matanyone2-runtime, with cli and webui subcommands
  • Timestamped run folders under results/<input-name>_<timestamp>/
  • Debug artifacts for every run, including SAM previews, masks, frame snapshots, and metadata.json
  • Windows-friendly setup with uv, automatic checkpoint downloads, and ffmpeg discovery

Quick Start

Requirements:

  • Windows 10 or Windows 11
  • Python 3.10
  • uv
  • git
  • ffmpeg
  • NVIDIA GPU recommended for practical speed

Install the base tools with winget:

winget install astral-sh.uv
winget install Git.Git
winget install Gyan.FFmpeg

Install from PyPI if you just want to run the packaged runtime:

uv venv --python 3.10
uv pip install --python .\.venv\Scripts\python.exe --upgrade pip setuptools wheel
uv pip install --python .\.venv\Scripts\python.exe torch torchvision torchaudio --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu124
uv pip install --python .\.venv\Scripts\python.exe matanyone2-runtime

PyPI package:

Install from source instead if you want to modify this repository locally:

uv venv --python 3.10
uv pip install --python .\.venv\Scripts\python.exe --upgrade pip setuptools wheel
uv pip install --python .\.venv\Scripts\python.exe torch torchvision torchaudio --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu124
uv pip install --python .\.venv\Scripts\python.exe -e .

Installed entrypoints:

  • matanyone2-runtime
  • matanyone-cli
  • matanyone-gradio
  • python -m matanyone2

Recommended unified entrypoint:

  • matanyone2-runtime webui ...
  • matanyone2-runtime cli ...

Launch the WebUI:

uv run --python .\.venv\Scripts\python.exe matanyone2-runtime webui --device cuda --port 7860 --server_name 127.0.0.1

Run the shared CLI:

uv run --python .\.venv\Scripts\python.exe matanyone2-runtime cli --input .\media\bookcat.mp4 --device cpu --performance_profile fast --cpu_threads 8 --positive_point 280,180 --output_dir .\results

Then open http://127.0.0.1:7860 for the WebUI, or inspect the generated run folder for CLI outputs.

Run Output Layout

Every run creates a dedicated directory such as results/bookcat_1773163828_6577592/.

Typical contents:

  • final outputs such as *_foreground.mp4, *_alpha.mp4, *_mask.png, and *_sam_preview.png
  • debug artifacts such as input_first_frame.png, input_selected_frame.png, sam_selected_preview.png, and sam_selected_mask.png
  • first and last matting snapshots such as matting_output_first_* and matting_output_last_*
  • metadata.json with the exact runtime configuration

This makes it easier to compare runs, reproduce experiments, and inspect intermediate state without launching the UI.

CLI and WebUI Share The Same Core

The Gradio app and the CLI both run through matanyone2/demo_core.py. Shared responsibilities include:

  • runtime configuration and ffmpeg setup
  • image and video loading
  • SAM prompt handling
  • matting orchestration
  • final output writing
  • debug artifact export

Thin entrypoints:

  • hugging_face/app.py for the WebUI
  • matanyone2/cli.py for direct CLI execution
  • matanyone2/runtime.py for the package-friendly matanyone2-runtime launcher
  • scripts/run_pipeline_check.py as a compatibility wrapper around the CLI

Python API

The PyPI package now exposes an import-friendly API for host applications that want to call MatAnyone directly instead of shelling out to the CLI.

from matanyone2 import run_pipeline

result = run_pipeline(
    input_path="bookcat.mp4",
    device="cpu",
    model="MatAnyone 2",
    positive_points=["280,180"],
)

print(result["foreground_path"])
print(result["alpha_path"])

The returned dictionary includes:

  • run_output_dir
  • debug_dir
  • foreground_path
  • alpha_path
  • mask_path
  • sam_preview_path
  • is_video
  • fps

Reproducible Validation

To reproduce the historical bookcat-profile-exp style run more closely, pin the same prompt points and FPS settings:

uv run --python .\.venv\Scripts\python.exe matanyone2-runtime cli --input .\media\bookcat.mp4 --device cpu --performance_profile fast --cpu_threads 8 --sam_model_type vit_h --frame_limit 241 --video_target_fps 0 --output_fps 12 --positive_point 280,180 --negative_point 30,30 --negative_point 530,30 --model "MatAnyone 2" --output_dir .\results

This workflow is also useful for CI smoke checks, scripted regression checks, and local benchmarking.

By default, the CLI now writes video outputs at the loaded media's processing FPS so playback duration stays aligned with the processed frames. Use --output_fps only when you intentionally want to override that for benchmarking or comparison runs.

CI/CD

GitHub Actions now covers the main repository lifecycle:

  • Repo Checks: builds docs, compiles maintained Python sources, lints the maintained runtime files, builds the package, and verifies the packaged entrypoints
  • Docs Pages: builds the VitePress site and deploys it to GitHub Pages on pushes to main
  • Release Package: builds wheel and sdist artifacts on v* tags, attaches them to a GitHub Release with SHA256 checksums, and publishes them to PyPI

If you want to cut a release:

git tag v0.2.0
git push origin v0.2.0

That tag will trigger the package release workflow automatically.

To make PyPI publishing work, configure a trusted publisher for this repository on PyPI and bind it to the pypi GitHub Actions environment.

Repository Layout

Path Purpose
hugging_face/app.py Gradio app entrypoint and UI wiring
hugging_face/tools/ UI helper utilities used by the demo
matanyone2/demo_core.py Shared runtime for WebUI and CLI
matanyone2/cli.py Direct CLI entrypoint
matanyone2/runtime.py Unified package entrypoint with cli and webui subcommands
matanyone2/ Upstream model and inference implementation
pretrained_models/ Auto-downloaded checkpoints, ignored by git
results/ Generated outputs and debug artifacts, ignored by git
media/ Repository branding and documentation assets

Troubleshooting

  • If ffmpeg is not detected, confirm ffmpeg.exe is on PATH or installed via winget
  • If CUDA startup fails, install a matching PyTorch build for your driver or switch to --device cpu
  • If the first launch takes a while, checkpoints and sample media are being downloaded on demand
  • If you want different host or port settings, use --server_name and --port
